Bordeaux Half Marathon

Why You'll love it

This is a night run! A stunning way to see the city and enjoy a run. Bordeaux has a lot of really lovely accommodation close to the start, so we didn’t have to eat take away race food – winner!

Things you need to know

The Bordeaux area in France is one of the most beautiful and the city is no less as enchanting. This night race through the clean streets, restored buildings and along the river is a wonderful way to experience the city. The route profile is very gentle, and easily taken on by beginners and racing snakes alike.
